So, I was searching how to root my phone, and I founds some articles, but they aren't the build version of my phone. I can't install the newer firmware, because It's not available in my carrier's version.
My phone's build number is: LRX22G.A500FUXXU1BOL1
and my carrier is Hungary Vodafone.
I am using Android 5.0.2, the latest I can get.
Can someone tell me a method to root my phone, keeping my current firmware? Any help is appreciated!

Look for TWRP 3.0.2-1 in the development section.

Is it only a recovery? I don't get it. If I install it, will I have root access, or how can I continue from there?

You flash the latest supersu with twrp and you will have root. It even explains it in the thread.
You should be making a full backup with TWRP before modifying your device anyway.

Okay I just want it for sure. I already bricked a phone by my stupidity.. lol. Guess I have to try it
Hi
SM-G900F
Sorry but im still a bit of a noob with phones so bare with me.
I use to be with EE network but have now had my phone unlocked and using on another network. I have also rooted my S5 so can not update via settings and software update as get error "the OS on your system has been modified"
I know i can put a custom rom on but just out of interest, can i stick on any stock network rom onto my S5 as i see that Vodafone are the first to have released marshmallow update for there sold S5.
Have hooked my phone up to laptop and ran Samsung kies 3 and it says i have the latest update even though im still on lollypop.
Do i have to unroot my phone before i can get marshmallow update?
Cheers
Flash this with ODIN

No, ODIN doesn't wipe the phone, it just upgrades it, it will remove anything custom like root or recovery though

Yep, but use TWRP 3.0.0.0 recovery with ODIN instead (Much more powerful too)
Then flash SuperSU 2.71 beta from TWRP

Thanks for the advise.
I managed to find some time to have a play and have successfully upgraded to Marshmallow :good:
Next step installing TWRP as you recommended, can you point me in the right direct where to download the correct version of TWRP for my S5 as only seem to be finding S4 version or for kitkat?
Also do i need to make sure its rooted before i do this?
Cheers for all your help so far

Managed to figure it out
Rooted it with this CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.zip

Nice job, I get my TWRP from here
https://dl.twrp.me/klte/
.tar version and flash with ODIN
3.0.0.0 seems to be the last stable version atm, not sure if the newer ones are bug free yet
That root you used might cause problems, the 2.71 beta systemless is the one for MM ROMs atm, the others either don't work fully or overheat the phone with constant high CPU usage
If you have problems, flash this one from TWRP

You should use SuperSU 2.79. Rooted the KII-L05 with it last night -- this is a GR5 (Canadian variant of the Honor 5X).
Hey guys
Soon I'm planning to upgrade my nougat to the beta build which you can find here. Does anyone have a good method to root the system afterwards? I'll try simply flashing SuperSU zip, but I doubt it will work, because it didn't even work on the older 7.1 OS.
Any suggestions or good advice with the upgrade & root process?
Thanks

If you use the TWRP backup that has magisk pre-installed you just need to install magisk manager and reflash magisk and you're good to go.

Also in nougat flashing SuperSU doesn't work, you have to use CFAutoRoot to get SuperSU working.

Nope. SuperSU does work in Nougat. I'm flashing latest SuperSU 2.82 SR5 on December build using TWRP and root works just fine.

I guess I was using the wrong version of twrp. When downloading the recovery from that website everything worked fine.
I've got this same problem, but flashing that universal TWRP build didn't work :/
Flash codeworkx twrp 8.0 version. The official twrp, has this issue with oreo builds.
